Question
Answer
Meiosis   a process in cell division during which the number of chromosomes decreases to half the original number by 2 divisions of the nuclus which results in the production  
🗑
Crossing Over   the exchange of dengetic material between homolegous chromosomes during meiosis; can result in genetic recombination  
🗑
Interdependent Assortment   the random distribution of the pairs of genes on different chromosomes to the gametes  
🗑
spermatogenesis   the process by which male gametes form  
🗑
oogenesis   the production growth and maturation of an egg or ovum  
🗑
ovum   a mature egg cell  
🗑
asexual reproduction   reproduction that does not involve the union of gametes and in which a single parent produces offspring that a genetically identical to the parent  
🗑
clone   an organism that is produced by asexual reproduction and that is gentically identical to its parent; to make a genetic duplicate  
🗑
sexual reproduction   reproduction in which gametes from two parents unite  
🗑
life cycle   all the events in the growth and development of an organism until the organism reaches sexual maturity  
🗑
fertilization   the union of a male and female gamete to form a zygote  
🗑
sporophyte   in plants and algae that have alteration of generations, the diploid individual or generation that produces haploid spores  
🗑
spore   a reproductive cell or multi-cellular structure that is resistant to enviromental conditions and that can develop into an adult without fussion with another cell  
🗑
